Now that Christmas is over we are looking forward to celebrating New Years!

Every day this week we'll be sharing recipes of our favorite appetizers

that we love to do up for New Year's Eve and Day!

We promise that each one is super easy and absolutely delish!

First up is a yummy and super easy caramel dip made from sweetened condensed milk.

Our sister-in-law from Texas just delighted us last week with this scrumptious treat.

Just take a can of sweetened condensed milk

and heat it in a pot of water over medium low heat for about 2 hours.

If you're up north it will take 2 hours but down in Texas it

takes about an hour. :)

Make sure to turn the can over every ten minutes so it cooks evenly.
(please excuse the gross BBQ'd tongs:))

Let it cool before you open it and then serve with sliced apples

or over ice cream, or anything else your heart desires!

Yummy and easy!**We came across warnings that the can could possibly explode using the boiling in the can method. If you are worried...please use the double boiler method. Open can, pour milk into glass dish, set dish over pan of boiling water, stir until thickened.**

Yummmm!! I tried something similar around the holidays too, except I used a crockpot. There wasn't any flipping involved...which is probably good for my forgetful self. ;) I'm happy to know that it can be done in a few hours though, especially for the times I don't have 8 hours to wait!!
